Apple Mail on iOS 13 on certain devices adds left and right padding

[hteumeuleu]

On Apple Mail on iOS 13, emails get an extra left and right unremovable padding on certain devices. Here are a few examples shared by @tedgoas on Slack.

Here's a thread reporting the same issue on Apple's discussions.

Following the discussion on Slack between Ted and @CourtFantinato, it seems this only affects iOS 13 on certain Apple devices (namely the big ones aka iPhone XS Max, iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPad Pro, …).

[multiplehats]

I'm a bit late for the party. But I have the same issue on my iPhone X. Pretty sure it has something to do with media queries.

For example, I'm subscribed to The Hustle, but their email has no padding.

Did you ever figure this out?

[hteumeuleu]

No, but mostly because I never got my hands on the HTML from emails that caused this. Would you be able to share a screenshot and some code from an email of The Hustle you mentioned?

[multiplehats]

Sure happy to @hteumeuleu included my own email and that of The Hustle, bit of a long scroll.

[multiplehats]

Any chance you could take a peak @hteumeuleu . Still haven't figured this now out 😅

[hteumeuleu]

Sorry I didn't. I took a look at your examples right away, but I couldn't reproduce the problem in Email on Acid. And I don't have a Litmus account right now or the proper iOS devices to test this.

[revelt]

@chrisschwartze hi! Please confirm the iOS version (Settings>General>About>Software version) and which mail app and which version of it you're using. Another thing, you posted the campaign with templating code. Strictly speaking, in order to recreate your experiment, we need exact rendered HTML from your experiment, without templating code. While issue_no can be replaced with string, the {% capture html_content %} is more difficult to guess.

I did a quick look on iPhone 7 / native Mail app / iOS 14.4, it is not happening. But that's a different phone screen size and possibly a different OS version. The only way I can get the side padding is rotate the iPhone to landscape, pinch to restore normal view, rotate back to potrait. But it doesn't show with padding on the sides when opened afresh.

The first step is, somebody needs to recreate the issue on a real device — pinpoint the source code, exact device, mail app version and OS version. If you want to help testing, the approach is, strip as much as you can from HTML, until there's just barely anything left to recreate the issue. ISOLATE. Then, start changing each line, until you find the cause. For example, it might be that issue in your case can be recreated with only blank body. Good. Continue with head. PINPOINT. You strip nearly everything and find out, step by step, let's say, that with minimum-scale==1 you get the padding, but without, it's fine. Job's done, that's the culprit. This is the workflow I'd follow if I was able to recreate the issue.

The bug is real, I've seen it before in geeks slack. It has never happened to my code. Same situation like Rémi, I don't have physical iPhone X to check, can't recreate. By the way, I'm using viewport meta tag <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"/>, it's different from yours, try that. Also, I don't put min-width: 100%; width: 100%; on body (only usual margin:0;padding:0;). Try that too.

[mateitudor]

This still happens in iOS 18
